If there’s one role in this business where an aspirational outlook to the future is essential, it has to be that of Head of Sustainability.

If there’s one role in this business where an aspirational outlook to the future is essential, it has to be that of Head of Sustainability. The approach we take today and the actions this translates into on the ground have the potential to fundamentally impact on the world around us and the generations to come. It’s a responsibility Simon Richards doesn’t take lightly.

As a company, we’ve made enormous progress on sustainability in recent years, which is documented in our recent Sustainability Roadmap Review 2016-20. Our Sustainability Roadmap has seen us reduce our environmental impact and make a positive contribution to the communities in which we work through our local reinvestment and social value initiatives.

Simon’s focus is now set on building on that success with our sustainability strategy, empowering our people to drive the sustainability agenda and make a positive impact.

Simon studied Physical Geography and Environmental Science at university and joined Sir Robert McAlpine in 2007 where he combines his passions for environmental management and construction.
